    Archery backpack hunt spare/ back-up equipment

    I have a spare release, allen wrenches for each size of bolt, some serving material, and enough dloop material to replace the cord on my Hamskea. I figure if I need to do more than that, I'm going back to the truck to fix my bow, and shoot it at an actual target.

    Sleep system recommendations

    Cimarron or Absaroka are probably the two most flexible options. Both have inserts for the early season critters and can utilize a stove for the late season stuff. They're big enough to fit two people + stove, but don't require a huge footprint. For solo trips, I"m using a Borah Gear Solo Tarp...

    Packing List & Weight Critique Needed

    Where's your hunt planned? And are you going solo or with someone? It looks like a pretty solid list overall. It's impressive to sleep only on the z-lite. I like the inflatable pad comfort too much. My nitpicking critiques would be: 14oz for a first aid kit seems heavy. Are there things you...

    Silex or Guardian Solo Late Oct Northern WY

    We were on an early November hunt in southern Montana last year. I took my Guardian with small Light Outdoors stove. I spent 5 nights in it, some solo, some with another person, with and without the stove. We had about 8" of snow on the ground and didn't have any problem getting it pitched...

    Sold Seek Outside Guardian with Lite Outdoors Small Stove

    I'm selling because I wanted a little more comfort than what this provides. This is a great setup for two minimalists, or a palace for one person. It's perfect for someone who wants a minimal hot tent setup. It's just enough to take the edge off. The stove, even with the baffle was only giving...

    SO Guardian First Overnight - tips needed

    The Guardian can be finnicky to get a good pitch. A couple things that have helped me: Have the stakes for the door as close to the bottom of the door as possible. You don't want any excess cordage between the bottom of the door and the stake. Angle the trekking poles out a little bit so...

    Backcountry gear

    It really depends on what type of hunting your planning on doing. Are you planning on spike camping, or changing campsites frequently? Are you planning on sitting and glassing for extended periods of time? Or, are you planning to try to cut some fresh tracks? If the area you're planning on...

    Axcel Landslyde long term durability?

    I've had mine on for two seasons now. It's held up great with no issues. I'm not light on my gear either. I have no complaints.

    Comparable Shelters to Argali Rincon

    @ccoffey I did not get the combo from them. I have the small (12") Lite Outdoors stove that I use in my Guardian. It's a really good combo. I was getting anywhere from 1-2 hours of burn time in that little stove and it kept the tent warm. We were able to dry our socks and boots out at night...

    Comparable Shelters to Argali Rincon

    The Seek Outside Guardian is a palace for one. I spent a night in mine solo and it's an absolute palace for you, gear, and a small stove. Otherwise, you'd have to jump up to a 4 person tent like the Absaroka or Seek Cimarron

    Beating a dead horse....

    I think you're spot on with Diamondback 10x42s. I've looked through two pairs of Crossfires and one pair of Diamondback HDs. Both pairs seemed extremely hazy and I wouldn't recommend them. I'd spend the little extra money to be able to see significantly better with the Diamondback HDs.

    How Many Folks Here Can Genuinely Say…

    Rokslide, ArcheryTalk, and Reddit are the three that I use the most. I have an Instagram account I use to follow a handful of other accounts. However, I never post on Instagram.
